3-Phenylmethyleneazadioxacycloalkenes having substituents in the ortho position of the phenyl radical are disclosed in WO-A 95/04728, WO-A 97/27189, WO-A 98/17653, WO-A 98/25465, WO-A 98/40351, WO-A 98/40365, WO-A 98/45289, EP-A 846 691 and WO-A 97/00866.

It is an object of the present invention to provide compounds having improved activity.

We have found that this object is achieved by the compounds defined at the outset. Furthermore, we have found processes for their preparation, compositions comprising them and methods for controlling animal pests and harmful fungi using the compounds I.

The compounds of the formula I differ from the compounds known from the abovementioned publications WO-A 95/04728, WO-A 97/27189, WO-A 98/17653, WO-A 98/25465, WO-A 98/40351, WO-A 98/40365, WO-A 98/45289, EP-A 846 691 and WO-A 97/00866 in the methyleneoxy, pyrazolyl or triazolyl grouping and the phenyl ring and from the compounds known from EP-A 378 755, EP-A 757 042, WO-A 94/19331, WO-A 95/29896 and WO-A 96/37480 in the azadioxacycloalkene group. The compounds of the formula I have an activity against harmful fungi and animal pests which is higher than that of the known compounds.

The compounds of the formula I can be obtained analogously to the methods described in WO-A 95/04728, WO-A 97/46542 and WO-A 98/17653 or EP-A 378 755, EP-A 757 042, WO-A 94/19331 and WO-A 95/29896.

The compounds of the formula I can be obtained by diff different routes, and it is immaterial for the synthesis whether the group X where # denotes the link to the phenyl ring,

or the pyrazolyl or triazolyl grouping is synthesized first.

The compounds of the formula I are, for example, preferably obtained by reacting benzyl compounds of the formula II with hydroxypyrazols or the corresponding triazols of the formula III. In the formulae II and III, R¹, n, A, W, Y, R² and R³ are as defined in formula I, in formula II, L is a nucleophilically replaceable group, for example halogen (e.g. chlorine or bromine) or an alkyl- or arylsulfonate (e.g. methylsulfonate, trifluoromethylsulfonate, phenylsulfonate and 4-methylphenylsulfonate).

1) The etherification of the compounds II and III is usually carried out in an inert organic solvent at from 0° C. to 80° C., preferably at from 20° C. to 60° C., if appropriate in the presence of a base.

Suitable solvents are aromatic hydrocarbons, such as toluene, o-, m- and p-xylene, halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, chloroform and chlorobenzene, ethers, such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tert-butyl methyl ether, dioxane and tetrahydrofuran, nitriles, alcohols, ketones, such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone, and also dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, 1,3-dimethylimidazolidin-2-one and 1,2-dimethyltetrahydro-2(1H)-pyrimidine, preferably methylene chloride, acetone, toluene, methyl tert-butyl ether and dimethylformamide. It is also possible to use mixtures of the solvents mentioned.

Suitable bases are, in general, inorganic compounds, such as alkali metal and alkaline earth metal hydroxides (e.g. lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide), alkali metal and alkaline earth metal oxides, alkali metal and alkaline earth metal hydrides, alkali metal amides, alkali metal and alkaline earth metal carbonates (e.g. lithium carbonate and calcium carbonate) and also alkali metal bicarbonates (e.g. sodium bicarbonate), organometallic compounds, in particular alkali metal alkyls, alkylmagnesium halides and also alkali metal and alkaline earth metal alkoxides (e.g. sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, potassium ethoxide, potassium tert-butoxide and dimethoxymagnesium), moreover organic bases, e.g. tertiary amines, such as trimethylamine, triethylamine, tri-isopropylethylamine [sic] and N-methylpiperidine, pyridine, substituted pyridines and also bicyclic amines. Particular preference is given to sodium hydroxide, potassium carbonate and potassium tert-butoxide. The bases are generally employed in equimolar amounts, in excess or, if appropriate, as solvents.

It may be advantageous for the reaction to add a catalytic amount of a crown ether (e.g. 18-crown-6 or 15-crown-5).

The reaction can also be carried out in two-phase systems comprising a solution of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxides or carbonates in water and in organic phase (e.g. aromatic and/or halogenated hydrocarbons). Suitable phase transfer catalysts are, for example, ammonium halides and ammonium tetrafluoroborates (e.g. benzyltriethylammonium chloride, benzyltributylammonium bromide, tetrabutyl ammonium chloride, hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide or tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate) and phosphonium halides (e.g. tetrabutylphosphonium chloride and tetraphenylphosphonium bromide).

It may be advantageous for the reaction to react initially the 3-hydroxypyrazol or -triazol with the base to give the corresponding hydroxylate, which is then reacted with the benzyl derivative.

Preference is given to using benzyl compounds II in which L is halogen.

The starting materials are generally reacted with one another in equimolar amounts. In terms of yield, it may be advantageous to employ an excess of hydroxypyrazol or -triazol, based on II.

The benzyl compounds II required for preparing the compounds I are known from the literature [cf. WO-A 95/04728; WO-A 98/17653]. They can be obtained, for example, by the following synthesis route:

2) benzyl compounds of the formula IIa are reacted with hydroxylamine or its acid addition salt, if appropriate in the presence of a base or a dehydrating agent, such as N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, or in the presence of a coupling reagent, such as, for example, 2-ethoxy-1-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ), 1-isobutyloxycarbonyl-2-isobutyloxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline (IIDQ) or benzotriazol-1-yloxytris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (BOP), to give the hydroxamic acids of the formula IIb which can be cyclized by reaction with compounds of the formula IVa to give IIc [cf. WO-A 95/04728].

In the formula IIa, L^(a) is an oxygen atom which is protected by a protective group, R is halogen, alkylcarbonyloxy, OH, C₁-C₄-alkoxy or an activated ester, such as unsubstituted or substituted phenoxy (such as, for example, p-nitrophenoxy or pentafluorophenoxy), succinimidoxy or isourea. In the formula Va, W is as defined in claim 1 and L¹ and L² are each a nucleophilically replaceable group, such as halide, C₁-C₄-alkylsulfonate, C₁-C₁₂-alkylphenylsulfonate or mono-C₁-C₄-alkyl sulfate, or L¹ and L² together may denote a bridge-O-.

The reaction sequence IIa Γ IIb Γ IIc can be carried out in two steps or, preferably, in one step, i.e. without isolation of the hydroxamic acid IIb which is formed in the first process step. The process can be carried out analogously to the methods described in WO 95/04728, WO 97/00866 and EP-A 846 691.

Compounds of the formula Va are known from the literature, or they can be prepared by known methods [cf.: WO-A 95/04728; WO-A 97/00866; EP-A 846 691].

Benzyl compounds of the formula IIa are likewise known from the literature, or they can be prepared by known methods [cf.: EP-A 178 826; EP-A 253 213; WO-A 95/04728].

3) compounds II, in which L is halogen (formula IId), are obtained from compounds IIc by reaction with an acyl halide or a hydrohalic acid E-Hal (formula IVb), if appropriate in the presence of a Lewis acid [cf.: JP-A 90/89653; DE-A 29 33 985; WO-A 95/04728; Tetrahedron Lett., 34, (1993), 3829]. It may be advantageous to cleave off the protective group of the compound IIc beforehand in a separate step [cf. T. W. Greene, Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry, J. Wiley & Sons, 1991, pp. 10-142].

Alternatively, it is possible to initially cleave off the protective group from the compound IIc and to convert the resulting benzyl alcohol subsequently, by reaction with customary halogenating agents, such as, for example, SOCl₂, BBr₃/SnCl₄, Ccl₄/triphenylphosphine or HBr, into the compound IId [cf.: Organikum, 16th edition 1988, p. 189ff., VEB Verlag der Wissenschaften, Berlin; Synthesis (1989) 614; J. Org. Chem., 53 (1988) 5113; Synth. Commun., 17 (1987) 219].

In the formula Vb, E is C₁-C₄-alkylcarbonyl, arylcarbonyl, C₁-C₄-alkylsulfonyl or arylsulfonyl and Hal is halogen (e.g. chlorine or bromine). Suitable compounds Vb are, in particular, carbonyl chlorides, such as, for example, acetyl chloride. A preferred Lewis acid is, for example, aluminum trichloride.

Compounds IId can also be obtained from o-tolyl compounds of the formula IIa, in which L^(a) is hydrogen, by free-radical halogenation under generally customary conditions [cf. J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 71, (1949), 2137ff.; ibid., 90 (1968), 1797ff].

4) Alternatively, compounds of the formula I are also obtainable from compounds of the formula IVa. They can be converted into compounds of the formula I via the reaction sequence IVa Γ IVb Γ I, analogously to the conditions mentioned in section 2).

In the formula IVa, the substituent R is as defined for formula IIa and the other radicals are as defined for formula I.

The compounds IVa are known, and/or they are obtainable by known methods [cf.: EP-A 378 755, EP-A 757 042, WO-A 94/19331, WO-A 95/29896 and WO-A 96/37480].

The reaction mixtures are worked up in a customary manner, for example by mixing with water, phase separation and, if required, chromatographic purification of the crude products. Some of the intermediates and end products are obtained in the form of colorless or slightly brownish, viscous oils, which are purified or freed from volatile components under reduced pressure and at moderately elevated temperatures. If the intermediates and end products are obtained as solids, purification can also be carried out by recrystallization or digestion.

If individual compounds I are not obtainable by the routes described above, they can be prepared by derivatization of other compounds I.

Owing to their C═C— and C═N-double bonds, the preparation of the compounds I may yield E/Z isomer mixtures which can be separated into the individual compounds in a customary manner, for example by crystallization or chromatography.

However, if the synthesis yields isomer mixtures, a separation is generally not necessarily required since in some cases the individual isomers can be converted into one another during the preparation for use or upon use (for example under the action of light, acids or bases). Similar conversions may also occur after use, for example in the treatment of plants in the treated plant or in the harmful fungus or animal pest to be controlled.

The compounds I are suitable as fungicides. They have outstanding activity against a broad spectrum of phytopathogenic fungi, in particular from the classes of the Ascomycetes, Deuteromycetes, Phycomycetes and Basidiomycetes. Some of them act systemically, and they can be employed in crop protection as foliar- and soil-acting fungicides.

They are especially important for controlling a large number of fungi on a variety of crop plants such as wheat, rye, barley, oats, rice, maize, grass, bananas, cotton, soya, coffee, sugar cane, grapevines, fruit species, ornamentals and vegetables such as cucumbers, beans, tomatoes, potatoes and cucurbits, and on the seeds of these plants.

Specifically, they are suitable for controlling the following plant diseases:

Alternaria species on vegetables and fruit, Botrytis cinerea (gray mold) on strawberries, vegetables, ornamentals and grapevines, Cercospora arachidicola on peanuts, Erysiphe cichoracearum and Sphaerotheca fuliginea on cucurbits, Erysiphe graminis (powdery mildew) on cereals, Fusarium and Verticillium species on various plants, Helminthosporium species on cereals, Mycosphaerella species on bananas and peanuts, Phytophthora infestans on potatoes and tomatoes, Plasmopara viticola on grapevines, Podosphaera leucotricha on apples, Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides on wheat and barley, Pseudoperonospora species on hops and cucumbers, Puccinia species on cereals, Pyricularia oryzae on rice, Rhizoctonia species on cotton, rice and lawns, Septoria nodorum on wheat, Uncinula necator on grapevines, Ustilago species on cereals and sugar cane, and Venturia species (scab) on apples and pears.

Moreover, the compounds I are suitable for controlling harmful fungi such as Paecilomyces variotii in the protection of materials (e.g. wood, paper, paint dispersions, fibers and tissues) and in the protection of stored products.

The compounds I are applied by treating the fungi, or the plants, seeds, materials or the soil to be protected against fungal infection, with a fungicidally active amount of the active ingredients. Application can be effected both before and after infection of the materials, plants or seeds by the fungi.

In general, the fungicidal compositions comprise from 0.1 to 95, preferably 0.5 to 90, % by weight of active ingredient.

When used in crop protection, the rates of application are from 0.01 to 2.0 kg of active ingredient per ha, depending on the nature of the effect desired.

In the treatment of seed, amounts of active ingredient of from 0.001 to 0.1 g, preferably 0.01 to 0.05 g, are generally required per kilogram of seed.

When used in the protection of materials or stored products, the rate of application of active ingredient depends on the nature of the field of application and on the effect desired. Rates of application conventionally used in the protection of materials are, for example, from 0.001 g to 2 kg, preferably 0.005 g to 1 kg, of active ingredient per cubic meter of material treated.

Moreover, the compounds of the formula I are suitable for efficiently controlling animal pests from the classes of the insects, arachnids and nematodes.

Pouring the solution into 100,000 parts by weight of water and finely distributing it therein gives an aqueous dispersion which comprises 0.02% by weight of the active ingredient.

VIII. 20 parts by weight of a compound according to the invention are mixed thoroughly with 3 parts by weight of sodium diisobutylnaphthalene--sulfonate, 17 parts by weight of the sodium salt of a lignosulfonic acid from a sulfite waste liquor and 60 parts by weight of pulverulent silica gel, and the mixture is ground in a hammer mill. Finely distributing the mixture in 20,000 parts by weight of water gives a spray mixture which comprises 0.1% by weight of the active ingredient.

The active ingredients can be used as such, in the form of their formulations or the use forms prepared therefrom, e.g. in the form of directly sprayable solutions, powders, suspensions or dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions, pastes, dusts, materials for spreading, or granules, by means of spraying, atomizing, dusting, scattering or pouring. The use forms depend entirely on the intended purposes; in any case, this is intended to guarantee the finest possible distribution of the active ingredients according to the invention.

Aqueous use forms can be prepared from emulsion concentrates, pastes or wettable powders (sprayable powders, oil dispersions) by adding water. To prepare emulsions, pastes or oil dispersions, the substances as such or dissolved in an oil or solvent, can be homogenized in water by means of wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier. Alternatively, it is possible to prepare concentrates composed of active substance, wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier and, if appropriate, solvent or oil, and such concentrates are suitable for dilution with water.

The active ingredient concentrations in the ready-to-use products can be varied within substantial ranges. In general, they are from 0.0001 to 10%, preferably from 0.01 to 1%.

The active ingredients may also be used successfully in the ultra-low-volume process (ULV), it being possible to apply formulations comprising over 95% by weight of active ingredient, or even the active ingredient without additives.

Various types of oils, herbicides, fungicides, other pesticides, or bactericides may be added to the active ingredients, if appropriate also only immediately prior to use (tank mix). These agents can be admixed with the agents according to the invention in a weight ratio of 1:10 to 10:1.

In the use form as fungicides, the compositions according to the invention can also be present together with other active ingredients, e.g. with herbicides, insecticides, growth regulators, fungicides or else with fertilizers. Mixing the compounds I or the compositions comprising them in the use form as fungicides with other fungicides frequently results in a broader fungicidal spectrum of action.
